It's better than previous videos, but it's still clunky. That Devil Bringer clone move seems waaay to easy to abuse and combat as a whole seems waaay to easy. Enemies don't even make an attempt to attack, like at all. Still some framerate drops as well.

agreed

they have a long way to go still. there is plenty of time for improvement so it shouldn't be considered final

True, but I honestly don't for a second think this game is only 30% done. I now they mentioned that evasive maneuvers aren't in the game, so I guess that pull move is to compensate for it, but it looks to make things far to easy.

It all looks nice. But the gameplay is a lesser form of Nero's style with some Dante moves thrown into the mix. DMC4 offered Nero for the more causal players to get into but kept Dante for us core gamers and greatly improved Dante's moves and controls. I wish DMC5 would take after DMC4's approach on the gameplay. Everything is nice about these videos except the gameplay. I need peudo Dante gameplay or Bust!

Yes, it looks pretty, too bad the much hyped "living city" is a scripted event with an annoying Trip clone guiding you around the levels.

Please give the Fanboy card a rest. I like how opposing view point equals fanyboy.

obviously im not talking about people who are willing to "DISCUSS" opposing views.

And ill keep using that term as long as people keep acting like it. yes the people who are crying over the fact that dante looks "emo" and are willing to forego playing this game based simply on that fact or that they dont like the direction its going, without even playing it... are, indeed fanboys.

Opposing views are fine... as long as it doesnt involve whining and sniveling that its not "Their" Dante. Or wild speculation about how the game plays, without even trying it. I can use the term acting like a "child" if that seems more appropriate for the way people behave on these forums when dealing with a "precious" IP such as DMC.

I like how people are up in arms over something they havent even tried yet. These people are, BY DEFINITION, fanboys.

These so-called "fanboys" of DMC are just fans of DMC. If you were an actual fan of the Devil May Cry series, you'd be pissed too to see this disgrace of a DMC game just as I am.

Using the term "fanboy" is just plain trolling so stop.

Edit: And Dante does look emo. Hell, in the original debut, I actually thought Dante was a dike (a woman) for the first ten seconds.

Lol... Whos the troll?

Im absolutely a fan of DMC... But im also not going to cry over a game ive yet to play. This new DMC looks great for what it is... Entertainment. There a huge difference between being a fan... And being a whiney fanboy... And judging by this topic alone... Its easy to spot the TRUE fans and pick out the childish behavior of the fanboys.

A fan can sit down and discuss the game civilly.

A fanboy trashes one game trying to justify themselves and defend another game they are "fans" of. Its childish. If i say this game looks great, and someone bashes me for my personal taste in games and proceeds to tell me im not a true fan... What do you call this person?

It's not like I have a thread about his already or anything. But at any rate, I will be honest, here: after watching SomaXD's video and remembering the one I posted (aka the OP video), I think this series looks more interesting than the old one.

The gameplay, at its core, seems more simplistic, though. I hope it doesn't stay that way.

I agree. Although I would prefer if they just improved on DMC3 approach where both styles (Dante and Virgil) are equally hardcore (or non-casual and encourage mastery of some sort of skill), but just different. But if there's only one protagonist, and he's going to be Dante, then get Nero out of the equation and just perfect Dante.

I think it's a tremendous disrespect to assume that some players who consider themselves "casuals" are just lazy and too dumb to learn how to play the Dante mechanics.

It's not that people are too lazy or too dumb. It's just that the difficulty turns people off and makes them think its just an outdated, broken battle system. DMC4 was my first Devil May Cry game. After I played as Nero in the demo, I had to get the game. When I finally got to using Dante halfway thru the game, I felt his movements were just intentionally restrictive for the sake of it and thus I preferred Nero as he was easier and very fun to play with. But after I saw gameplay videos by his1nightmare, etc, and I decided to give Dante a shot to learn. Only then did I realize that Dante was amazing to use and actually better equipped for combat. Now I feel "restricted" when I use Nero, lol.

It would be nice if Vergil returned, especially with style-switching. I got to buy DMC3 and he I downright badass to use! The shooting sowrds, Gilgamesh, and Yamato combined make him deadly stylish for executing combos.

Also, I have a 4.17 million score on DMC4 Bloody Palace with Dante

Also, a small video I made a while back. Nothing to special tho, but I did some things I liked. I need to get a rematch with Shadow Dante again so I can really show off.
